The Senate has responsibility here or the Cabinet under the 25th Amendment but they aren't going to act.

""Joe Biden Didn't Just Vote for the Iraq Invasion"He Helped Lead the March to War; no sorry that honor falls on President George W. Bush, to pretend otherwise is just plain dishonest.

"The Democrats will never allow "means-testing" because then SS will be viewed in the light of what it actually is - a welfare program."
That is why since FDR's time Democrats have not wanted means testing but it is no now and never has been welfare. It is paid forexclusively by payroll taxes on employees and employers. It has never been paid out of the other revenue streams of the federal government and back in the 1980's, during the Reagan Presidency we doubled the SS tax to insure that .ehe SS Reust Fund would be large enough to fund our retirements.
"Take your 2% return and like it!"
If you become disabled and can't wotk you probablt will like SS disability SS isn't an investment it's insurance.

Just a couple of months ago these dangerous criminals were picking you lettuce and tomatoes or maybe roofing your house so let's lock them in a super-max in El Salvador. Don't you feel so much safer? I honestly don't. I feel guilty like the Germans who claimed they didn't know what the Nazis were doing but they knew and so do we.

"#6 on the flip, telling people they HAVE to put them in is dumb too."
Showing respect for another human being is dumb? Well then color me dumb and I won't be intimidated by --------- into disrespecting people who don't adhere to their narrowminded worldview.

"Donald Trump has reportedly asked advisors multiple times why the U.S. couldn't use nuclear weapons, particularly during discussions about foreign policy and military strategy. His comments have raised concerns about his views on nuclear weapons and their potential use in conflicts."
But no doubts about his sanity? That's crazy! Personally, I would completely reject the opinion or advice from any Trump voter.

"So if there was ever POTUS deserving of a parade it will not ever be a senile sleepy phoney daily lid on Joe Biden who was incompetent from his first day in office, and no one knows which perv exactly pulled his puppet strings."
" economist put it, the U.S. economy is "the envy of the world." President Biden is fighting to give the middle class a fair shot."
"U.S. stock market has wiped out $9.6 trillion since Inauguration Day"

"Let's ignore the fact that this day just so happens to be the 250th "birthday" of the US army."
No, let's ignore the fact that it is Orange Hitler's birthday.

Average Americans have been "taking our mrdicine for a long time; since Reagan and his stupid "trickle down economics." Trump's medicine is more of the same medicine with more tax cuts for the rich while the rest of us take more medicine while waiting for the trickle down that never comes. I think it's time for the rich to take their medicine and accept significantly higher taxes. FDR thought 90% was a good tax rate; I don't think I would want it that high but it would have to be enough to make a good dent in the national debt.

I read the article describing Scott's plan but would it actually be enough to guarantee SS will be solvent when someone who is entering the workforce today will be able to rwhen ecieve benefts when they reach retirement age; whatever age that will be then? Did I miss something?

From the article:" In a video, attached in this post on X, with 1.1 million views at the time of writing, Trump states that "Canada by the way imposes a 250-300% tariff on many of our dairy products, the first can of milk, the first little carton of milk, very low price, after that, it gets bad."
ItchyP posted an article which did absolutely nothing to contradict the statement that Donal Trump lied his ass off st thr rose Garden annoncement of his tarriffs. Canada did not ever have a 250-300% tariff on American milk. Trump makes stuff up and his stupid supporters lap it up like Canadian kittens lap up American milk!

"Progressives are doing nothing more than using this as a political weapon and it's stupid.
"Yeah cuz Republicans would never use such an incident to attack progressives if the shoe was on the other foot would they? Puhleee! Don't make me laugh.

"What in the heck is climate justice?"
That's when a climate change denier's property insurance goes up so much in price that they can't afford their beach house on the Gulf of Mexico any more. I'm quite sure that quite a few Republican fat cats here in Florida have felt the pain of "climate justice."

Trumpers is a term that should be replaced with the more accurate term "racist Nazis. Every one knows that the Underhround Railway was just a subway from Georgia to Massachussetts.

Trump scores another win for Fascist dictators......is he trying to tell us something many of us have already guessed? Has he ever met a dictator he didn't like? Do you other Republicans who post here share his love for dictators and dictatorships?

What retirees in Florida care about Social Security and Medicare? But I do have to ask any senior citizen who voted for Trump and the GQP, are you deaf, incapable of reading or what? I've read about Wisconsin dairy farmers whining that they can't find farmhands or ranchers with the same complaint; weren't they listening to what Trump was saying? I suspect we're going to have lot's of Republican voters who realise their stupidity too late. After Smoot-Hawley made the Great Republican Depression of 1929 much worse the nation had mostly Democrativ rule until Nixon's campaign came up with the Southern strategy which relied on white resentment about Civil Rights and public school integration; a/k/a racist hatred. Trump used the same thing. Republicans have been the Party for racists since 1972.

So now I've got another debate in my head; is Donald Trump really that stupid or just a bug fat liar or both?

The --------- pretend to believe in freedom, especially freedom of speech but had no problem denying it to transgender people! Clue to them, if you can deny freedom to one group then you don't actually believe in freedom.

Economic interdependence is the key to long term peace among nations. Trump's idiotic tariffs on China actually make us less safe by reducing the economic benefits China enjoys by trading with the United States. No nation ever wanI Trump mindts to go to war against their biggest customer. Donald Trump needs to go back to high school but this time he needs to actually read his history book. I'm having a debate in my head; is Trump crazy or just real stupid, or both?

I'm no fan of Musk but I agree with him about Europe and we should do the same with all of our other friends like Japan, S. Korea, Mexico and, of course, Canada! Trump is/was CRAZY! to start an unnecessary trade war to "bring the jobs back to America" Doesn't it occur to anyone that we have pretty much enough jobs for anyone who wants to work. Unemployment when Biden left office was around 3%. And that was before he started deporting the immigrants from south of the border who did all the jobs most Americans don't want to do, Even former Trump supporting ranchers and farmers are now whining that they can't operate their agricultural businesses without those workers Trump is deporting. Americans need to wake up; Trump doesn't want to deport those people to make more jobs for Americans; no he wants to deport them because " immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country." Hate to break the news to him but that ship has sailed. Interracial marriage and the children of those marriages are now normal in our society and Trump can't change that but, apparently, he can make hard lives of poor immigrants who are willing and able to work hard even harder just out of pure meanness! Most of my adult life I have worked among immigrant workers from all of Latin America and the Carribbean. Virtually all learned English as quickly as they could, are law abiding, and really good people. Trump's tarriff policies are ridiculous and just flat out stupid. They really aren't economic policies; they are retribution policies. He wants to punish foreign manufacturers for building superior products that Americans prefer over the American made products.

"There is a difference between dying in a training accident and dying in direct combat." sailors Either way those men or women gave their lig ves serving their country and deserve to be honored and their sacrifice respected. Even if they are serving in an office position but are somehow killed while on duty they deserve the same. Or if they are a cook or a gardener, or a medic or a doctor, it doesn't matter.

What do you expect from a fake patriiot, fake Christian, fake American. Probably if those soldiers were Russians he would have shown more respect but wait, I just remembered how respectfully Putin honor Russian cannon fodder, er, I mean conscripted and barely trained soldiers who he happily throws, by the thousands, at the very battle hardened Ukrainian forces.
